"[This] may be the finest state history ever written...Required reading for anyone with pretensions to knowledge about the West--past, present, future."--San Francisco Chronicle. "An unequalled historical work for the use of serious students or interested laymen alike. Absorbing arid readable."--In Wyoming. "A fine history of Wyoming. It is candid, well-balanced...Wyoming should be proud it possesses a historian of Dr. Larson's ability."--Denver Post Roundup. "Stands as high as the Tetons that tower over Wyoming's millions of tourists every summer."--Boston Globe. T. A. Larson has enjoyed distinguished careers as a professor of history at the University of Wyoming and as a state legislator.
